Overview

About 170 Storeton Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

170 Storeton Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Birkenhead (CH42 8NB). It has a recorded floor area of 248 m² (around 2669 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 248 m² the property is well over the postcode median (63 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £589,000 sits 58.8% above the 2007 sale of £371,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
